The Interfraternity Council at Washington State University suspended its Delta Upsilon fraternity chapter Wednesday afternoon after one 18-year-old woman reported she was sexually assaulted at the fraternity house and a 17-year-old girl sought treatment at a hospital after drinking alcohol at the house.

Police received a call for an alleged sexual assault on Sept. 2 to the Delta Upsilon house in Pullman, Wash. The 18-year-old victim was being treated at Pullman Regional Hospital, according to a police department press release.

After an emergency meeting held Wednesday afternoon, the school’s IFC decided to suspend the chapter in a 23-1 vote.

“Sexual assault on campus, whether those involved are Greek affiliated or not, is an issue that is highly serious and frankly, deplorable,” the IFC’s press release reads.
